Due to the fact that I need 8.2 for the watch...I think I'm going to unjailbreak now...before I get too attached to my tweaks.

I don't have many and only two that really matter

Springtomize (for the five icon dock)
Lock-info (my second favourite tweak of all time, behind BiteSMS)

The longer you have something, the harder it is to lose it.

So....8.2 here I come....maybe

I know the feeling, got rid of my jailbreak the day 8.2 came out.

They will update the jailbreak eventually for 8.2 :)
 
Sadly there are tweaks we can never go back to, unless they are picked up again.

I restored to 8.1.3 a week ago, losing my jailbreak temporarily (until a new jailbreak is out) but losing biteSMS for good.

Being stock now, I am really missing Bite.

I haven't had Bite ever since I went to iOS8, so I'm not concerned about losing something I haven't had for ages, but I will miss LockInfo

What was your process for removing the JB? I'm currently 8.1.2 and need to upgrade to 8.2 also. I want to completely remove the JB including preference files but I don't want to start fresh, I want to restore from backup.

what I've always done is a complete restore via itunes, set up as new phone and then restore from back up. This does sometimes does put a few JB stuff back (carrier name is one I think) but nothing major

Backup to iCloud or iTunes first, and then click the restore button within iTunes.

As long as you have a successful backup, everything will go back to the way it was, just minus the JB stuff.
 
I did it kind of wish I would have waited for the watch but running the beta 8.3 now so I guess its all good.

How's 8.3 working for ya and what device? I'm thinking about unjailbreaking my 6 Plus to try out 8.3 as I heard it runs more fluid than past releases.

I'm on the 6 Plus and haven't noticed any issues with 8.3. I want to say it feels smoother but my device seems to run pretty good either way.
